Visual Guide
Your Step-by-Step Routine
Daily cleansing + 2–3x weekly clay stick + spot treatment as needed
Clay Stick (2–3x/week)
Guide →On slightly damp skin, glide the stick onto the T-zone and pore-prone areas. Leave on 5–10 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with water.
Cleanser
Guide →Cleanse after rinsing the clay stick to fully remove residue. On non-clay-stick days, use as your daily cleanser.
Water Gel
Guide →Apply to calm irritation and support the skin barrier. Keeps skin hydrated while treating acne.
Spot Treatment
Guide →Do not shake. Finish the rest of the routine first, then dip a clean cotton swab into the white powder layer and dab directly onto active pimples. Leave it on after it dries as the final step.

Day 1–3
Cleaner feel after washing. Pores feel tighter after clay stick. Active pimples drying faster.
Day 4–7
Blackheads loosening. Oil production reduced. Skin stays hydrated from the water gel.
Day 7–14
Noticeably clearer complexion. Pores look refined. Fewer new breakouts. Skin barrier feels healthy.
When to Worry
Widespread redness, severe tightness that doesn't resolve with the water gel, or new rash patterns.
💧Skin Feels Too Dry
Increase Water Gel application to 3x daily. Reduce clay stick to once per week.
😣Irritation or Redness
Skip the clay stick for a week. Use cleanser + water gel only.
🔴More Breakouts
In the first 1–2 weeks, the clay stick draws out hidden clogs and the drying lotion helps pimples come to a head faster — existing blemishes may become more visible before clearing. The Water Gel keeps skin comfortable throughout. Most users see improvement by Week 2–3.
🤷No Improvement
After 2 weeks, consider upgrading to the SA Acne-Clear Trio which adds chemical exfoliation with a BHA toner.
Mistake
Using the clay stick every day
Why
Over-cleansing with clay can strip the skin and trigger more oil production.
Do Instead
Use the clay stick 2–3 times per week. Use the cleanser daily.
Mistake
Applying drying lotion before cleansing
Why
Dirt and oil block the active ingredients from penetrating.
Do Instead
Always cleanse first, then apply spot treatment to clean skin.
